Legendary Spanish coach Luis Aragones dies

Luis Aragones, the coach of Spain’s 2008 European Championship-winning side, died on Saturday at the age of 75, the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF) announced.

“The RFEF is sorry to announce the death of Luis Aaragones,” read a statement on their website.

Aragones, who notably played for Atletico Madrid and coached a host of leading Spanish sides, took charge of the national team in 2004 and departed after their Euro triumph in Vienna, making way for Vicente Del Bosque.
